Hi,
I had the same issue, and spent a couple of hours on it, however I haven't a clear
understanding of what caused it.
I only had this problem on one of my Windows boxes (runs fine on Linux, Solaris, and
all of my other Windows machines). So it was definitly weird. As you're using Windows
(c:\... in your comment), I guess you might have the same issue.
The difference between this machine and the others was that I installed WinCVS on it,
and on the others I had a basic CVS client bundled with cvsNT. So all I did is replace
the CVS client, and voil�! it all worked as normal.
So I guess the problem comes from some Windows CVS clients. The .cvspass file was
correct in all the machines, but the CVS client bundled with WinCVS was probably
broken.
HTH,
Julien Dubois.

Description:
I'm trying to run the changelog report, but it doesn't work because Maven supplies a
blank password. How can you tell it to use a real password? Note: I created a
.cvspass file in my home directory, which Ant reads and uses just fine:
--- (snip) ---
C:\Java\Maven\plugins>type build.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project name="ca" default="dist" basedir=".">
<target name="feh">
<cvs command="diff -u -N" output="patch.txt"/>
</target>
</project>

Maven doesn't see it, though:
